“Great food and great service! I got the Risotto with scallops and the waitress was great marking my gluten and nut allergies. The food is pricey but very much worth it, everybody in my group loved it!”
“My husband and I had a wonderful dinner here and I can’t wait to return on the next trip! I was pleasantly surprised that the gluten free options are even broader than what was noted on the menu. Our waitress, Tatiana, was phenomenal and really elevated the experience. We had the harvest salad, beef cheek raviolo, Pistachio Pesto with gluten-free penne, and Nutella Mousse. Every dish was perfect and it was a high point of our stay at the resort.”
“Great food, but very slow service. Restaurant wasn't full and it took a long time every time anything was needed. Fish dish was amazing and my daughter loved the calamari. I had the truffle pasta and it was fantastic. Would definitely be back.”
“If you are reading reviews it’s because you aren’t sold on this place just yet. Let me help you….this place is a joke. Avoid at all costs. They burned my gnocchi to an absolute crisp (they seared it on one side) and still decided to bring it to the table. I didn’t even know how to send it back because there’s no way they even know how gnocchi is supposed to be cooked. The manager was nice but oblivious to what type of food is leaving their kitchen. The server clearly has trouble persuading people to order certain dishes, as she only recommended the highest priced items. I feel sorry for people who book here. They need a whole new kitchen staff and service team. $18 for kids menu items is atrocious and their kids “appetizer” is leftover melons from the breakfast buffet. I can’t reiterate how disappointing this place was after such high hopes. They almost forced us to “add proteins” to our pasta because the portions are on the “smaller side” according to our server. Pasta dishes starting at $30+ should not be small, much less over cooked to the max. Eat at your own risk. Just go the Next Door Pub for 1/4 the price and 10x the experience.”
“We made a reservation for Valentine’s Day dinner that charged us ahead of time and included tip. First off, after last nights experience, seems like a major rip off. Granted we had a later reservation, our server Anna told us what they were out of. Fine, no problem. But then when our dinner came it left a lot to be desired. My husbands dish came with polenta and it was raw, I took a bite and could taste the hard grits in it. We let the server know and she flatly said “do you want mashed potatoes?” And asked us if we wanted the meal remade or if we were fine with the same meal. She brought back the same meal but the plate had risotto instead and same steak and same asparagus. The asparagus were literally still covered in the runny polenta! It felt like such a slap in the face. We are not unreasonable people and have both worked as servers before and in restaurants. We wanted the night to be special and it just was not. I’d also like to point out the table that was showcasing the featured wine display was being used to set dirty dishes, and we were sat right next to it. So we had a view of a wine display covered in dirty dishes, a server that didn’t know what was going on, and a mediocre dinner at best, all for more than $350. Absolutely not worth it.”
